In honor of the new home for #ASLSignbank, I thought it was time to give #Glossgesang a home on Bluesky.

What's #Glossgesang you ask?
Why thank you for asking!

It's this:
Always present signed language data in a visual format without relying solely on glossing

This week is back to school for my university but I'm on sabbatical for the first time and it's my first time not teaching since Summer 2012!!!

Also, because I'm maybe a bit of a masochist, I'm back to school for a second MA in DHH early intervention!
Dark red background with collections of light lilac and mustard dots surrounding and overlapping a picture of me wearing a purple button-up shirt and holding a sign that says “It’s my first day of Sac State sabbatical” in dark green writing. Underneath that it says “2023-2024” and above that, it has the signs from the @ASLSignbank for “my,” “first,” and “day.” There’s a bullhorn in the bottom-right corner angled up toward the photo.
